Ingredients
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1/4 cup Everything Bagel Seasoning
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1 large egg
- 1 lb chicken tenders (see notes)
- 1 tbsp butter melted
Instructions
- In a shallow bowl, whisk together the almond flour, bagel seasoning, and garlic powder. In another shallow bowl, whisk the egg until frothy.
- Pat the chicken tenders dry. Dip each into the egg and shake off the excess, then dredge in the nut flour mixture. Place on a waxed paper lined plate.
- Preheat an air fryer to 375ºF and grease the air fryer rack. Arrange the tenders so that there is a little space between them.
- Brush the tops lightly with melted butter, gently so as not to disturb the coating.
- Air fry 8 to 10 minutes, flipping the tenders over halfway through cooking. Remove to wire rack set over a baking sheet when they are cooked through (165ºF).
Notes
Oven method:
- Prepare the keto chicken tenders as directed.
- Preheat the oven to 400ºF. If using convection or fan-forced, preheat to 375ºF.
- Lightly grease a baking rack and set it above a baking sheet. Arrange the tenders on the rack so that they have a little space around them for air to circulate. Brush with the butter.
- Bake 15 to 20 minutes, flipping once halfway through baking. The center of the tenders should reach 165ºF on an instant read thermometer.
